When heat flows from a warm object in contact with a cool object do both objects undergo the same amount of temperature change?

Energy is always "lost" in transition. Depending on the substances of the warm object and the cool object, the energy lost will vary, but the energy lost will not be noticeable in any way, unless one has a very accurate thermometer, at least to the thousandths place.
EDIT :: This is assuming a vacuum. In an atmosphere, depending on the temperature of the atmosphere, energy will escape. However, if one measured all of the energy in the entire universe before and after the temperature change, the total energy would be the same, but the energy in the two objects would be different. For instance, if one of the two objects was an ice cube, in the Arctic the results would be much different than what the results would be in Hawaii.
add. But of course the two objects should have the same thermal mass for the equality to prevail. Consider for example heat flowing from Copper into Glass.

flows out of any place or thing has to go somewhere.

What determines the amount of friction?
The roughness of the two objects coming in contact determines the degree of friction.
What is the realtionship between temperature and energy?
Temperature is a measure of the amount of heat energy an object has.As per the second law of thermodynamics, heat flows from hotter objects to colder objects. The bigger the difference in temperature, the more heat flows.
AMOUNT Of matter in an objects?
The amount of matter in an object is it's mass. Remember that mass is independent of weight.
Does temperature affect the amount of substance dissolved in a saturated solution?
Yes temperature affects the amount of substance dissolved in a saturated solution.
What is the effect of temperature change to the amount of heat content of the substance?
The effect of temperature change to the amount of heat content of the substance is called heat transfer. As heat increases, the temperature decreases.
What will happen to the amount of infrared radiation emit if an objects temperature is increased?
Increase
What determines the amount of friction?
The roughness of the two objects coming in contact determines the degree of friction.
Does heat is NOT related to temperature differences?
Heat is the amount of energy transferred between objects where a difference in temperature is present. So in that sense, heat is related to temperature differences, but is not the same. The temperature difference is caused by the difference in the avg. speed of particles between the two objects.
Two objects may have the same temperature but they will not have the same amounts of thermal energy unless they also have the same amount of?
heat
Two objects may have the dame temperature but they will not have the same amounts of thermal energy unless they also have they same amount of what?
Specific heat capacity
Conditions for no heat transfer between two objects?
Heater is energy. Energy transfers from the higher energy unit to the lower energy unit, until they reach equilibrium. Equilibrium is when both objects contain the same amount of energy, therefore it is impossible for any to transfer between each other. The basic conditions for no heat transfer between two objects is for them to be the same temperature. To keep them at that same temperature, they would have to be floating in a perfect vacuum chamber so they had no contact with matter whatsoever. They would have to be shielded from infrared heat energy as well.
Why does adding the same amount of heat to two different Objects does not necessarily produce the same increase in Temperature?
Difference in desity of the matrials the objects are made of.
What force between objects is affected by the amount of matter in the objects and the distance the objects?
The "amount of matter" is an informal description of the mass. The force in question is called gravity.
Do objects of the same volume displace the same amount of water?
Yes, if all of the objects have the same amount of volume they will displace the same amount of water!
What evidence supports avogadros hypothesis?
PV/NrT, pressure(volume)/amount(constant)(temperature). When your temperature, volume, and pressure are all the same, you get the same number of particles. This is avogadros hypothesis. Let's say that you have to balloons. They have the same temperature, volume, and pressure. If you weigh the gases in the balloon, you will find that there is the same amount of particles. In fact Dalton did this was able to find out the amount of particles (atoms) by the mass of objects.
The amount spent on heating depends on the temperature?
Amount (temperature) or A(t)
Can an object be hotter than another if they have same temperature?
because thermal energy doesn't depend only on the temperature of an object but also form its mass so the objects might have different amount of mass
